"Sequans exited 2021 with growing momentum in our Massive IoT
and CBRS Broadband businesses, setting us up for improved results
for 2022 as more design wins in our pipeline move to mass
production, " said Georges Karam,
CEO of Sequans. "Fourth quarter revenue grew by 16.1% sequentially
and, when adjusted to exclude last year's Jetpack contribution
(1), increased by 61.4% year-over-year, mainly driven by
Massive IoT and CBRS Broadband. While supply chain constraints
remain a potential disruptor, we have improved visibility at this
time for sufficient capacity to meet our customer demand in 2022,
as the majority of the anticipated shortfall has been resolved.
"Our expanded partnership with Renesas strengthens our
go-to-market opportunities for our products and provides an
opportunity to reduce our manufacturing costs and increase supply
capacity," continued Mr. Karam. "Sequans' family of MCU and channel
partners, with their globally recognized brands, are the foundation
of our go-to-market strategy and important growth drivers for us
that are expected to accelerate in 2022. We are entering 2022 with
a record backlog, and our pipeline now exceeds $650 million of potential product revenue, of
which design wins represent almost 50%. We are extending our
success in 2021 with our CAT-M Monarch 2 platform and enjoying an
enthusiastic response to the recent launch of our CAT-1 Calliope 2
solution. At this time, around 80% of our design wins are for
Massive IoT applications, where we are engaged in over 100
projects, many with high-profile, Tier-1 customers."
Mr. Karam concluded, "My team and I are committed to expanding
our 5G Massive IoT and Broadband IoT leadership, leveraging our
relationships with our strategic partners and channels and
maximizing value for shareholders. As stated on our last earnings
call, Sequans is exploring options to finance our 5G investment. We
are engaged in productive dialogs with potential strategic partners
and are encouraged by their level of interest. Our proven track
record of closing strategic deals reinforces our confidence in
reaching a mutually beneficial agreement with a new 5G
partner."
Q1 2022 Outlook
The following statement is based on management's current
assumptions and expectations and assumes no increase in the
severity or duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. This statement is
forward-looking and actual results may differ materially.
Taking into consideration current customer demand and
expectations for component availability, management is targeting
revenues to be flat for the quarter ending March 31, 2022, despite the historically
seasonally lower activity in the first quarter, with a lower
operating loss.

Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains projections and other
forward-looking statements regarding future events or our future
financial performance and potential financing sources. All
statements other than present and historical facts and conditions
contained in this release, including any statements regarding
future results of operations and financial positions, business
strategy and plans, including financing alternatives for our 5G
business and ability to enter into a new 5G strategic agreement,
expectations for Massive IoT sales, the impact of the Covid-19 on
our supply chain and on customer demand, our expectation for
sufficient capacity to meet customer demand in 2022, the impact of
component shortages and manufacturing capacity, our ability to
convert our pipeline to revenue and our objectives for future
operations, are forward-looking statements (within the meaning of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). These statements are
only predictions and reflect our current beliefs and expectations
with respect to future events and are based on assumptions and
subject to risk and uncertainties and subject to change at any
time. We undertake no obligation to update the information made in
this release in the event facts or circumstances subsequently
change after the date of this press release. We operate in a very
competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from
time to time. Given these risks and uncertainties, you should not
rely on or place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements. Actual events or results may differ materially from
those contained in the projections or forward-looking statements.
In addition to the risk factors contained in our Form 20-F for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2020,
some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from the forward-looking statements contained herein
include, without limitation: (i) the contraction or lack of growth
of markets in which we compete and in which our products are sold,
(ii) unexpected increases in our expenses, including manufacturing
expenses, (iii) our inability to adjust spending quickly enough to
offset any unexpected revenue shortfall, (iv) delays or
cancellations in spending by our customers, (v) unexpected average
selling price reductions, (vi) the significant fluctuation to which
our quarterly revenue and operating results are subject due to
cyclicality in the wireless communications industry and transitions
to new process technologies, (vii) our inability to anticipate the
future market demands and future needs of our customers, (viii) our
inability to achieve new design wins or for design wins to result
in shipments of our products at levels and in the timeframes we
currently expect, (ix) our inability to enter into and execute on
strategic alliances, (x) our ability to meet performance milestones
under strategic license agreements, (xi) the impact of natural
disasters on our sourcing operations and supply chain, (xii) the
impact of Covid-19 on the ability to operate our business and
research, production of our products or demand for our products by
customers whose supply chain is impacted or whose operations have
been impacted by government shelter-in-place or similar orders,
(xiii) our ability to raise debt and equity financing, and (xv)
other factors detailed in documents we file from time to time with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Use of Non-IFRS/non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our unaudited consolidated financial statements
prepared in accordance with IFRS, we disclose certain non-IFRS, or
non-GAAP, financial measures. These measures exclude the
non-cash stock-based compensation and the non-cash impacts of
convertible debt amendments, conversions and repayments, effective
interest adjustments related to the convertible debt with embedded
derivatives and other financings; and deferred tax benefit or
expense related to the convertible debt and other financings.
We believe that these measures can be useful to facilitate
comparisons among different companies. These non-GAAP
measures have limitations in that the non-GAAP measures we use may
not be directly comparable to those reported by other
companies. We seek to compensate for this limitation by
providing a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to
the most directly comparable IFRS measures in the table attached to
this press release.
